Non–Retractable Seat Belt
• Loose fitting seat belts could increase the chance of injury due to sliding under the belt if sudden
braking should occur. Keep the seat belt snug and positioned as low on the hip bone as possible.
• Use a single seat belt for one person at a time. Do not use a single seat belt for two or more people –
this includes children.
• No more than two persons per bench seat at one time. Do not allow people to ride in any part of the
vehicle that is not equipped with a seat and a seat belt. Do not allow a passenger to hold a child in his
or her lap while the vehicle is moving.
• Be careful not to damage the seat belt webbing or hardware.
• Inspect the seat belt system periodically. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose parts. Damaged parts
should be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the system.
• Keep seat belts clean and dry. If cleaning is necessary, use a mild soap and lukewarm water solution.
Do not use bleach, dye or abrasive cleaners as they may severely weaken the seat belts.
• Do not insert coins, clip, etc. in the buckle as this may prevent the tab from locking into the buckle
properly.
• If the seat belt does not function normally, contact your dealer/distributor or trained technician
immediately. Do not occupy the seat until the seat belt is repaired.
